Conference Proceeding
ZARB, M., HUGHES, J. and RICHARDS, J. 2015. Further evaluations of industry-inspired pair programming communication guidelines with undergraduate students. In Proceedings of the 46th Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) technical symposium on computer science education (SIGCSE 2015): keep connected, keep committed, keep computing, 4-7 March 2015, Kansas City, USA. New York: ACM [online], pages 314-319. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1145/2676723.2677241

Pair programming has several benefits when it is successfully used by students and experts alike. However, research shows that novice pairs find the necessary pair communication to be one of the main challenges in adopting this process. A set of indu...

Available from: https://doi.org/10.5220/0005201602400247

This paper presents an interactive model for structural pattern recognition based on a naïve Bayes classifier. In some applications, the automatically computed correlation between local parts of two images is not good enough. Moreover, humans are ver...
